Sun Ruizhe, President of China Textile Industry Federation The speech said that the current Chinese textile industry has formed the world's largest and most complete modern textile industry system, and is entering a new stage of high quality development. Due to its high technology content, wide application scope, strong driving effect and great market potential, industrial textiles are becoming an important economic growth pole and transformation driving force of China's textile industry in the new era. Geotextile textiles are one of the earliest and most mature fields in the development of industrial textiles. With the material innovation, technological innovation and technological innovation, the performance of geotextiles has been continuously enhanced, functions are continuously enriched, and the application fields have been expanding continuously, providing strong support for national economic development and infrastructure construction. He pointed out that With the deepening of globalization, the construction of the world's infrastructure is developing rapidly. The demand for geosynthetics in the world has been greatly improved. The market potential is huge, and the future development space is broad.

Around the high quality and win-win development of the geotechnical textile industry, Sun Ruizhe made three suggestions: everything We should strengthen cooperation in scientific and technological innovation, improve the collaborative innovation system, and focus on basic research, key materials, core technology, high-end equipment and key products research and development, strengthen the development of new materials, new technologies and new technologies, accelerate the transformation and application of scientific and technological achievements, strengthen the construction and docking of standard systems, and jointly promote the transformation of manufacturing technology to intellectualization and greening. Two is We should strengthen the application and innovation cooperation, strengthen the application and innovation of Geotextiles in the field of infrastructure construction, strengthen the convergence of production and demand, enhance the scope and capabilities of services, build a new industrial supply chain, and explore the extension of geotextile textiles to product design, engineering construction, operation monitoring, maintenance and other links, and form a systematic solution. Three is We should strengthen market innovation and cooperation, and strengthen cooperation in the field of geosynthetics, such as information sharing, technology exchange, market development, exhibition trade, etc., intensify the protection of intellectual property rights in related fields, and actively promote the circulation of industrial resources, such as quality products, advanced technology, superior capacity, high-end service and international brands, and promote the in-depth exchange and cooperation in production, learning, research and application all over the world.

Pierre Wiertz, general manager of the European nonwovens Association In his address, 4 years ago, the European nonwovens Association (EDANA) and the China Industrial Textiles Association (CNITA) decided to jointly organize a forum on geosynthetics, integrate global culture and industry factor resources, build bridges for Asia, Europe and other regions, build communication platforms for the geosynthetics industry, and promote the common development of the industry. At that time, China's "one belt and one road" initiative was put into effect, and cooperation between the two sides could also be seen as part of the "one belt and one road" initiative. Now the world is supporting the development of huge geographical areas with unprecedented infrastructure plans. The demand for geosynthetics will be greater than ever before, not only in most parts of Europe and Asia, but also in the Middle East and Africa. Geosynthetics are indispensable not only in the implementation of infrastructure projects, but also in reducing environmental impacts and helping to cope with climate change. In the future, there will be more cooperation between the Confederation and the European nonwoven Association in terms of standards setting and scientific and technological innovation. In addition, the Asia Europe geosynthetics conference and the international standardization organization geosynthetics committee meeting will be held at the same time, which will play a good role in the standardization construction of the industry.

Industry development strategy

Li Lingshen, vice president of China Textile Industry Federation and President of China Industrial Textiles Association stay The status quo and future of China's geotextile industry The keynote report pointed out that industrial textiles have high technology content, wide application fields, high added value of products and strong industrial driving force, which has become a new growth pole of China's textile industry. In 2018, the total fiber processing of industrial textiles accounted for 28% of the total textile industry, and geotechnical textiles accounted for 6.76% of industrial textiles. Since 2013, the output of Chinese geotechnical textiles has increased by 9.28% annually, reaching 1 million 62 thousand and 400 tons in 2018. At present, there are about 500 geotechnical textile enterprises in China, mainly in the production of non-woven geotextiles. In the future, China's geotechnical textiles will maintain an increase of about 7.5%, and the promotion of value will become an important driving force for the growth of China's geotechnical textile industry.

According to Li Lingshen, Geotextile textiles were applied in China's water conservancy projects before 80s of the last century. Plastic film, polyethylene film and woven bags were used as impervious and anti erosion materials. After 80s, modern geosynthetics such as spunbonded, needle punched geotextiles, geotextile bags, drainage belts and geogrids were introduced into key projects. The catastrophic flood in 1998 accelerated the development of China's geotextile industry, and the industry formulated and implemented a batch of standards and technical specifications. Since 2010, the pace of technological innovation in the industry has been accelerated, and the application of all kinds of geotextiles has been widely applied in a large number of key national projects.

In view of the market situation of geotextile textiles, Li Lingshen pointed out that In the future, the focus of infrastructure construction in China will be concentrated in the central and western regions. The geological environment in these areas is complex and vast. In addition, China is a big country in foreign project contracting. It is estimated that the demand for geotechnical materials from overseas projects undertaken by Chinese companies exceeds US $1 billion 500 million. In view of the standardization system of geosynthetics, he introduced 39 national standards in the field of geotechnical engineering, mainly in the field of textiles. Nearly 50 industry standards, involving textile, water conservancy, transportation, railways, urban construction and other fields, basically met the needs of production, application, testing and evaluation of geosynthetics in China. As for the progress of science and technology, he made a detailed introduction from the aspects of raw materials development, product quality improvement, technological innovation and application expansion of geotechnical textiles.

Finally, Li Ling Shen concluded that the breakthroughs and applications of new materials and technologies will promote the development of geotextile textiles and form more revolutionary alternatives. Continuous large-scale infrastructure construction is an important guarantee for the steady development of China's geotechnical textile industry; the investment in infrastructure along the "one belt and one road" will become the growth point of China's geotechnical textiles; the standard system and application standards of the industry will be more perfect, and the concentration of the industry will be improved, and the development of the industry will be healthy and sustainable.

Matthias, Maisner, BAW bring Performance and environmental impact of Geosynthetics for filtration Presentation. He introduced. The geotextile filter in the waterway always contacts with the soil, groundwater and surface water, and each fiber can affect the leaching performance. Improper use of geotextiles may lead to the formation of micro plastic. In order to test and evaluate the release of dangerous substances into soil and water, a dynamic surface leaching test method (DSLT) has been developed. As leaching occurs in all surface areas that are in contact with the eluent (water), the internal surface of geotextiles must be considered to evaluate the test results of DSLT. The release of micro plastics is an important factor affecting the environment. The EU proposes that environmental protection is a long-term indicator for testing the performance of geosynthetics. ISO TC 221 WG3 uses the wear test method, which can simulate the wear condition of geotextiles under wet conditions and determine the release of micro plastic materials.
